Pearl Jam
Pearl Jam Full Concert - Madison Square Garden Performance
On May 2, 2016, Pearl Jam performed live at Madison Square Garden in New York City, a notable venue for the band during its long history. At this time, the band had recently released "Lightning Bolt," their tenth studio album, in 2013, which had marked a return to a more aggressive sound reminiscent of their earlier work. The live recording showcases a robust setlist that includes fan-favorites like "Corduroy," "Animal," and "Given to Fly," demonstrating their enduring appeal and energy on stage. By 2016, Pearl Jam was not only celebrating decades in the music industry but also solidifying its legacy as a major force in rock music. Interestingly, this performance occurred during their extensive North American tour, which was part of their broader effort to reconnect with fans and promote their music, especially as they marked the band's 25th anniversary that year.
